If nothing else Washington Redskins coach Mike Shanahan proved that, despite some personnel and public relations miscues, he has changed the culture of the franchise with the victory at Tennessee. Where Joe Gibbs – the next generation – talked of heroic efforts after his team lost and Jim Zorn was professionally neutered by upper management costing him the respect of...

…last year: High hopes from trades and coaching, disappointing preseason, season opener against the New York Giants in an away game.
The Redskins only have 2 QBs this season, so the pressure is on for Jason Campbell to perform and NOT get hurt. He cannot get hurt and everyone knows this. The other questions lingering from preseason wou...

No thanks to the first-teamers, the Redskins were down 10-3 by the first half. QB Jason Campbell completed only 1 for 7 passes for only 10 yards.

DT Albert Haynesworth has returned to practice after missing 2 days with a knee injury which has been listed as “not serious.” Haynesworth has previously received the same fluid injections into his knees over the last few years and coach Jim Zorn commented “Haynesworth practiced and did great.

“Each one of the draft choices who participated, they were a bright spot, just seeing the speed with which they were working and how they picked things up,” Zorn said. “When [defensive line coach] John Palermo would tell Brian Orakpo to make a correction, the nex...

The Washington Redskins drafted Texas DE Brian Orakpo in the first round of the 2009 NFL draft with their 13th pick.
Brian Orakpo is a 263 lb, 6'3″ DE from the Texas Longhorns. He was born July 31, 1986 in Houston, Texas. In his senior year at Texas, he was the Associated Press Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, the winner of the Bronko Nagurski Trophy (best defensive player), ...

Former Missouri QB Chase Daniel signed with the Redskins after not being drafted this weekend. Daniel was a finalist in 2007 for the Heisman trophy. This gives the Redskins 4 QBs on the roster.
Brian Orakpo held his first press conference moments ago. When asked how he felt about playing the Cowboys, he laughed first, then said he was “never a Cowboys fan” being from Houston....
